Refine presentation of "major upgrade available" message

  • Put the distro name in the text so the button doesn't have to be so long
  • For the PackageKit backend, change the button text to "Begin Upgrade…" So it's clear that this is just the first step and that further interactivity will be needed. For the RPM-OSTree backend, just tweak the existing wording to not be redundant.
  • Give the button an appropriate icon
  • Change the icon in the message banner itself to something more generic and appropriate (this is a generic update mechanism so it shouldn't be using an icon specific to RPM packages, since in principle this update notification could apply to an upgrade for any other kind of package too).
  • While we're touching strings, give them some translation context

Regrettably I can't attach screenshots since this UI only appears when there's a major upgrade available, and faking it by changing around the code is a pain and I'm lazy. Hopefully the above description and/or the diff view are sufficient to review this proposal. Yes, that means this is also untested (other than making sure it compiles), so please review carefully. 😄
